Yield Makes 3 pint-size jars

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/4 pounds small to medium red beets (4 or 5), washed well and patted dry
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 small onion, thinly sliced
3 cups cider vinegar
1 1/2 cups water
1 1/2 cups sugar
4 Granny Smith apples, peeled and cut into 1/2- to 3/4-inch pieces
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place beets on a sheet of parchment-lined foil; drizzle with oil. Season with salt and pepper. Fold edges to form a packet. Place on a baking sheet, and roast beets until tender, about 1 hour. Unwrap; let cool slightly, then peel. Cut into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Bring onion, vinegar, water, and sugar to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook until sugar dissolves, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in beets, apples, and mustard.
  • Divide among 3 pint-size sterilized glass jars using a slotted spoon, leaving 1/4-inch headspace at tops. Wipe rims and then close with screw bands and lids.
  • Submerge jars, covering with water by 2 inches, upright on a wire rack in a large pot of hot water; bring to a boil. Boil for 15 minutes (or longer, depending on altitude). Remove jars from pot using tongs, and transfer to a layer of clean towels to cool. Once cool, check for a slight indentation in lids, which indicates a vacuum seal. Refrigerate all canned products after opening.

Yield Makes about 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 medium beets (1 lb total with greens), trimmed, leaving 1 inch of stems attached
1/3 cup cider vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 Granny Smith apples (1 lb total)
2 tablespoons bottled horseradish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Tightly wrap beets in a double layer of foil and roast on a baking sheet in middle of oven until very tender, 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours. Cool in foil package until warm (the steam makes beets easier to peel), about 20 minutes.
  • While beets are roasting, stir together vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until sugar and salt are dissolved. Cut apples into 1/4-inch dice and add to dressing along with horseradish. Toss well.
  • When beets are cool enough to handle, slip off skins and remove stems. Cut beets into 1/4-inch dice and stir into apple mixture.
  • Chill relish, covered, stirring occasionally, at least 2 hours (to allow flavors to develop) and up to 3 days.

Tips:

  • For a sweeter relish, use sweeter apples, such as Fuji or Gala.
  • For a more tart relish, use tarter apples, such as Granny Smith or Braeburn.
  • To make the relish spicier, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
  • For a more savory relish, add a tablespoon of Dijon mustard or horseradish.
  • The relish can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
